Conversation
…n counting Add a comprehensive benchmarking suite for the LinkedGraph data structure that uses instruction counting on Linux (via perf_event) with a fallback to wall-clock time on other platforms. Benchmark groups: - node: add, lookup, iteration operations - edge: add, lookup, iteration operations - adjacency: successors, predecessors, incident edges iteration - traversal: DFS, BFS, post-order traversal on various topologies - mutation: clear_edges, clear, derive operations Graph fixtures include: chain, complete, binary tree, and sparse graphs.

🤖 Augment PR SummarySummary: Adds a new Criterion benchmarking suite for the Changes:
Technical Notes: On Linux, measurements are taken from a hardware instruction counter (reset/enable per iteration, disable/read at end). Throughput is primarily reported as instructions per element using Criterion’s throughput reporting. 🤖 Was this summary useful? React with 👍 or 👎 |

InstructionCount::new() currently expects on perf_event counter creation, which will make cargo bench fail on many Linux setups (e.g., containers/CI with restrictive perf_event_paranoid). Consider a graceful fallback (or an opt-in flag) so benchmarks still run when hardware counters aren’t available.

In scale_throughputs for Throughput::Bytes*, the calculation is inverted: *value = bytes / value yields bytes-per-instruction, but the unit returned is inst/B. If you intend inst/B, this should scale like the Elements case (divide instructions by bytes).

Inverted throughput formula for Bytes measurement scaling
Medium Severity
The Bytes/BytesDecimal branch in scale_throughputs computes bytes / instructions (bytes per instruction) but labels the result "inst/B" (instructions per byte). The formula is the reciprocal of what the unit label indicates. The Elements branch correctly uses *value /= *elements as f64 to get instructions-per-element, but the Bytes branch inconsistently uses *value = (*bytes as f64) / *value instead of the analogous *value /= *bytes as f64.

Stale throughput leaks into lookup benchmark results
Low Severity
The group.throughput() call from the preceding "add" loop persists on the BenchmarkGroup and leaks into the "lookup" benchmarks, which don't reset it. In bench_node_operations, lookup benchmarks inherit a stale throughput of 10,000 elements; in bench_edge_operations, they inherit 249,500 elements. Since lookup measures a single O(1) operation, the reported throughput (inst/elem) values will be orders of magnitude off, producing misleading benchmark output.

Summary
Add a comprehensive benchmarking suite for the
LinkedGraphdata structure inhashql-core. The benchmarks use instruction counting on Linux (viaperf_event) with a fallback to wall-clock time on other platforms.What's Included
Benchmark Groups
add_node, lookup by ID, iteration over nodesadd_edge, lookup by ID, iteration over edgesclear_edges,clear,deriveoperationsGraph Fixtures
Implementation Details
Instruction Counting (Linux)
Uses the
perf_eventcrate to create a hardware instruction counter. This provides deterministic, reproducible benchmark results that are independent of system load.Fallback (Non-Linux)
On platforms that don't support
perf_event(macOS, Windows), the benchmarks automatically fall back to criterion's default wall-clock time measurement.How to Run
